Passwords for Multipoint Calls
You might be required to enter a meeting password to join a multipoint call.
And you can require that far sites enter a meeting password, to prevent
unauthorized participants from joining multipoint calls hosted by your HDX
system.
To enter a meeting password:
• If a prompt appears on the screen, use the onscreen keyboard to enter the
password.
• If you hear an audio prompt, use the keypad to generate DTMF tones.
To configure a meeting password:
1 From the Home screen touch User Settings.
2 Touch the HDX System tab.
3 In the Meeting Password field under Meetings, enter the password.
Multipoint Viewing Modes
What you see during a multipoint call can vary depending on how the
Polycom HDX system is configured, the number of sites participating, the
number of monitors you are using, and whether content is shared. The
multipoint viewing mode configured on the host system is the one used in the
call. To find out more about these modes, please talk to the administrator of
your Polycom HDX system. The following table describes the different
multipoint viewing modes when an HDX system is hosting the multipoint call.
• If you need to generate touch tones (DTMF tones), touch Keypad from the call
screen. Then use the keypad number buttons.
• SIP calls do not support meeting passwords. SIP endpoints calling into a
multipoint call protected by a password might not be able to join the call.
Setting Description
Video images from multiple sites can be automatically combined on one monitor in
a display known as continuous presence.
Auto The view switches between continuous presence and
full screen, depending on the interaction between the
sites.
If multiple sites are talking at the same time,
continuous presence is used. If one site speaks
uninterrupted for at least 15 seconds, that site appears
in full screen on the monitor.
